CONNECT – SEPARATE
JUNE 4
SUMMARY
We all face problems that we choose, and one of the greatestchallenges in our lives is connection. We often seek to connect with theworld through technology, like the phone, but paradoxically, thisseparates us from true connection. Our addiction to technology distancesus from ourselves and others, preventing us from experiencing thefullness of life. To find true connection, we must return to our innerselves and develop our own technology of consciousness.
QUOTE
“The tendency to see that outcomes only possess one end of the threadprevents us from seeing that a knot has two ends; both pull to tighten,both pull to release.”
